Midnight Dinner

I don’t know why I prefer feeding the animals in the middle of the night, but I do most of my feeding after midnight. Sometimes cleaning too.

Now I’m laying in bed with Reilly sitting on me and scowling because he isn’t receiving 110% of my attention. The rest of the room is full of little munching sounds.

All of the mammals got carrots, Timothy hay, and their staple diets. The ones that don’t eat carrots and Timothy hay still got scraps of them to let them play with new and exciting objects and smells. Here’s hoping Wilhelmina anoints with Timothy hay instead of poo tonight. Hedgehogs like to rub things on themselves that smell interesting, and Wila usually chooses poo.

I remember when my cat Dusty would scratch and nudge the bedroom door in the early morning because she was hungry. I learned quick we have to train them on our schedule otherwise WE end up getting trained by them. LOL

Absolutely! The cat my family had when I was a child got fed around 5 or 6 am when my dad was getting ready for work. She expected the same schedule on the weekend too. That’s why I feed my cats at dinner time!

I’ve always been a night owl, but lately I’ve had a bit of insomnia on top of it, which has definitely contributed to the late night feeding. At least I’m getting stuff done instead of staring at the ceiling though.

Hahaha! Such a cute photo. I see nothing wrong with feeding your pets in the middle of the night. Since I tend to work midnights, my cats get fed in the middle of the night every night. We affectionately call that meal “Middle, Middle, Middle”. LOL It sounds like your furbabies are being treated like royalty. 🙂

What a cutie pie hedgehog! My bedtime routine includes playing fetch in the dark and toothbrushing. Then we hit the hay! Hey, your sweet pals are eating the hay about the time we’re hitting the hay! We have a lot in common!
